Have not called around yet. Thought I would ask here and see if anyone has a recommendation on who rebuilds hydraulics.
Thanks , Don

if its the seals on the ram there is a kit with new seals in it not very hard to change out but it takes 2 people to bleed the system once the seals have been replaced.

I can not see that it will matter which end I pull through or from on the ram for seal replacement but would anyone know otherwise.
Thanks for advice.

Pulled ram from port side and worked out and now have solid steering. All is good.
